ALARMS?

 

Active Alarms Query

 

 

Returns alarm status for a single scanned channel, or alarm status for all

 

 

scanned channels.

 

 

ALARMS? <channel>

 

 

<channel> = (0 .. 20) or leave blank

 

 

The values returned represents data from the most recent scan, whether

 

 

scanning is active or note. The integers returned indicated the alarms

 

 

condition as follows:

 

 

0 neither limit is in alarm and/or alarm(s) not defined

 

 

1 Limit "1" in alarm

 

 

2 Limit "2" in alarm

 

 

3 Limit "1" and Limit "2" in alarm

 

 

For a single scanned channel, use ALARMS? <channel>. Return data for

 

 

a single scanned channel consists of a single integer, as defined above.

 

 

An Execution Error results if a request is made for a channel defined as

 

 

OFF, the channel specified is invalid, no scan measurements have been

 

 

made or are being made, or values have been cleared by REVIEW_CLR

 

 

or by changing any parameter on any channel.

 

 

For all canned channels, use ALARMS?. Return data for all scanned

 

 

channels is a string of integers, separated by commas. The first digit

 

 

represents the alarm status of the lowest channel scanned, and the last

 

 

digit represents the alarm status of the highest channel scanned.

 

 

Example: ALARMS? 5 returns 1 [Channel 5 is in Limit 1alarm.]

 

 

Example: ALARMS? returns 0,2,3,0,1,1, [Six channels were scanned. The

 

 

first has no alarm or alarms were not defined, the second has a Limit 2

 

 

alarm, the third has both Limit 1 and Limit 2 in alarm, the fourth has no

 

 

alarm or alarms were not defined, the fifth and sixth have a Limit 1 alarm.]
